I'm hanging on the telephone.

DISGRACELAND

617-906-6638.

DISGRACELAND
Bonus Episode: 1994. We Didn’t Know How Good We Had It

You want to give me a call.

DISGRACELAND
Bonus Episode: 1994. We Didn’t Know How Good We Had It

I want to send me a text about anything, any subject under the great blue sky.

DISGRACELAND
Bonus Episode: 1994. We Didn’t Know How Good We Had It

Last week, we talked a lot about great punk albums.

DISGRACELAND
Bonus Episode: 1994. We Didn’t Know How Good We Had It

It was in reaction to Rolling Stone's list of the 100 greatest punk rock albums.

DISGRACELAND
Bonus Episode: 1994. We Didn’t Know How Good We Had It

We're talking about records that are punk, but aren't by punk artists, all that stuff.

Steve hits us on this from Toronto.

DISGRACELAND

Bonus Episode: 1994. We Didn’t Know How Good We Had It

DISGRACELAND

And I actually think...

DISGRACELAND
Bonus Episode: 1994. We Didn’t Know How Good We Had It

That record for me, I believe it's Public Enemy's second album, full length, right?

DISGRACELAND

Second, yeah.

DISGRACELAND
Bonus Episode: 1994. We Didn’t Know How Good We Had It

That was my introduction.

DISGRACELAND
Bonus Episode: 1994. We Didn’t Know How Good We Had It

And I was just kind of catching up with who Public Enemy was by the time the Fight the Power single came out after that record as part of Do the Right Thing.

DISGRACELAND
Bonus Episode: 1994. We Didn’t Know How Good We Had It

And I think Fight the Power ended up on their third album.

DISGRACELAND
Bonus Episode: 1994. We Didn’t Know How Good We Had It

But it was the single in the video.

DISGRACELAND
Bonus Episode: 1994. We Didn’t Know How Good We Had It

And I remember watching that and just my jaw being on the floor.

DISGRACELAND
Bonus Episode: 1994. We Didn’t Know How Good We Had It

I could not believe what I was seeing.
